Google To Invest Over $850M In Second Latin American Data Center Amid Global Expansion Efforts
Google, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL), announced on Thursday its plans to open a second data center in Latin America, specifically in Canelones, Uruguay.
全球貨幣的子公司 alphabet inc.（納斯達克代碼：GOOG）（納斯達克代碼：GOOGL）週四宣佈計劃在拉丁美洲開設第二個數據中心，具體位於烏拉圭的卡內洛內斯。
What Happened: The company will invest more than $850 million in this new facility. Google first entered the Latin American data center market in 2015 with a facility in Quilicura, near Santiago, Chile.
公司將在這個新設施中投資超過85000萬美元。谷歌於2015年首次進入拉丁美洲數據中心市場，在智利聖地亞哥附近的奎利庫拉設有一家設施。
"We hope our new data center in Canelones will be a significant contribution to the professional and technological development of Uruguay and the entire region," Google said in a blog post.
「我們希望我們在卡內洛內斯的新數據中心能爲烏拉圭和整個地區的專業和技術發展作出重要貢獻，」谷歌在一篇博客文章中說。
In May, Google announced a $3 billion investment for a data center campus in Indiana and expansion in Virginia, along with a $2 billion investment in Malaysia for its first data center and Google Cloud region in the country.
五月份，谷歌宣佈在印第安納州投資30億美元建設數據中心園區，並在弗吉尼亞進行擴張，同時在馬來西亞投資20億美元建設該國的首個數據中心和谷歌雲區域。
In June, Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced a $2.3 billion investment in Ohio's data centers, further solidifying the state's position as a burgeoning tech hub.
六月份，谷歌CEO桑達爾·皮查爾宣佈在俄亥俄州的數據中心投資23億美元，進一步鞏固了該州作爲一個新興科技中心的地位。
Why It Matters: The global data center market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by the increasing demand for cloud services and artificial intelligence infrastructure. According to Taz Koujalgi, managing director and equity research analyst at Wedbush Securities, cloud security remains in its early stages despite the swift adoption of these services.
爲什麼重要：全球數據中心市場正經歷快速增長，這得益於對雲服務和人工智能基礎設施日益增長的需求。Wedbush證券的董事總經理和股票研究分析師塔茲·庫傑爾奇表示，儘管這些服務被迅速採納，雲安全依然處於早期階段。
China has also reportedly made significant investments in data centers, committing over $6 billion following the U.S. semiconductor embargo. This move underscores the strategic importance of data centers in the global tech landscape.
據報道，中國在半導體禁運之後已經在數據中心方面進行了重大投資，承諾投資超過60億美元。這一舉動凸顯了數據中心在全球科技格局中的戰略重要性。
Additionally, innovations in data center technology, such as those by Sustainable Metal Cloud, are making these facilities more efficient. Their technology, which reduces energy consumption by up to 50%, is crucial as the demand for high-density GPU hosting increases.
此外，Sustainable Metal Cloud等數據中心技術的創新使這些設施更加高效。他們的技術可以將能源消費降低50%，這在高密度GPU託管需求增加的情況下至關重要。
